Paul Ibou
Paul Ibou is a Belgian graphic designer whose work includes 350 logos and symbols for corporations and public institutions, and in 1980 he started the publication Vorm in Vlaanderen. He has a great collection of work. My personal favorite is this calendar. I’m sucker for a tightly kerned sans-serif.
You can see more of his work on Iconofgraphics.com.
Ducats Milk Packaging
I agree with Shelby, I’d pay good money to get my hands on these Ducats milk cartons designed by Heinz Grunwald in the 80s. They’re beautiful and functional. These are also a reminder of how bad design can get nowadays. It’s our responsibility as designers to push graphic design back to this type of thinking. Simple, smart, beautiful.
The General Fireproofing Company Annual Report – 1969
Nice cover for The General Fireproofing Company annual report designed by Chermayeff & Geismar in 1969.
Ben Bos
Incredible work by legendary Dutch designer, Ben Bos. He studied with Wim Crouwel at the Amsterdam Graphic College, and later went on to work with him at Total Design. He’s compiled an extraordinary body of work.
Yves Zimmermann
I love these covers designed in 1959 by Yves Zimmermann for Typografische Monatsblätter. Set in Akzidenz Grotesk, these covers remind me of another TM cover designed by Robert Büchler. A poster was also printed of these wonderful design.
